The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, lookin' at the charts for Hof Maravi. Gotta be straight with you – it's shaping up to be a pretty quiet run. The swell is tiny and the winds are mostly a pain. But I’ll walk you through it.
We kick off on Sunday the 23rd of August, but don't get your hopes up. This whole first stretch is a dud. That tiny 2 ft of WNW swell is all cross-on and choppy, with combined energy barely reaching 18 (very weak). It’s not surfable.
Monday the 24th through to Thursday the 3rd of September is a long, drawn-out gap of flat, messy conditions. The swell never gets above 3 ft, and the period stays short between 5 and 8 seconds, so it’s gutless. Mornings offer a few glassy windows, like Monday the 24th and Wednesday the 26th of August morning, but the swell is just too weak (1 ft to 2 ft) to get a decent ride. Afternoons get torn apart by 9 to 12 mph cross-onshores.
There’s a slight flicker of life on Saturday the 29th of August morning. We get a little 3 ft NW swell with an 8-second period, and the wind goes glassy. Combined energy climbs to 78 (still only weak to moderate). It’s surfable – I’d call it ordinary but you could get a few little ones. The same pattern repeats on Sunday the 30th of August morning: 2 ft NW swell, glassy, 59 energy. Those mornings are your only real chances in this whole window.
Into the first week of September, it’s back to the same story. Tuesday the 1st is flat, Wednesday the 2nd has 2 ft to 3 ft but it’s onshore and choppy. Thursday the 3rd is similar but with 99 energy – still weak.
Finally, the last notable session looks like Saturday the 5th of September morning. It’s a glassy start with 2 ft of WNW swell at 8 seconds, and the combined energy is 51. Again, it’s small, but clean enough for a longboard. Nothing here is a standout.
Water temp is 86°F on that first Sunday – that’s a touch warmer than normal, so you won’t need a wetsuit. With all this cross-on wind and small swell, if you’re on a beach setup like Hof Maravi, you’d honestly have more fun on a kite than a paddleboard for most of this period.
Bottom line: there’s no proper swell to get excited about. The best you can hope for is a glassy morning with a knee-high wave on the 29th, 30th of August, or the 5th of September.
Rusty.

Information about the Hof Maravi Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Hof Maravi provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Hof Maravi can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Hof Maravi surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Hof Maravi) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Hof Maravi may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
